Tensilica optimized the HiFi Mini DSP core to be as small and power
efficient as possible for voice trigger and voice recognition in two
major ways. First, the core uses compact 40-bit encoding, which
significantly improves code size. Second, Tensilica added
efficient16-bit instructions that are optimized for voice and audio
codecs. The result is a post-route core that’s only 0.039 mm2 in 28 nm HPL. See the press release.
